| Parking across from the tavern. Note that the drive in is about 1/2 mile on a single lane, sometimes rutted sand road. I was really worried that another car would be coming towards me with no room to pass but fortunately there was nobody else around. |

I found the map above to be accurate. At his time, the kiosk map as well as the paper maps at the kiosk only show the white trail.

THE HIKE:
This hike was not planned in conjunction with the Egg Harbor hikes but with it being half way towards home on a really pretty day and with trails not long enough to warrant a separate trip, why not?
 |
| Even though there had been rain the previous day, wet spots were either mulched or had bridges. |
 |
| Crossing the entrance road. |
 |
| The blue shortcut trail to the right. |
 |
| The other end of the blue shortcut trail. |
 |
| There was still some of snowcrete here from the last storm. |
 |
| There is a short paved trail behind the tavern but we are heading to the left ... |
 |
| ... over the bridge. |
 |
| It's a very short but pretty trail ... |
 |
| ... out to a picnic table. |
 |
| Heading back. |
